Orion S.A. has begun producing circular carbon black at its ISCC PLUS-certified plant in Qingdao, China, using tire pyrolysis oil as feedstock. The facility is making three ECORAX Circular grades—200, 210, and 215—with ECORAX 200 positioned as a hard black suitable for tire applications.

What impact do you think TPO-derived carbon black will have on tire performance and the broader push for circularity in the rubber industry?

Using TPO is great, but its ash/metals/sulfur swing like crazy - how are you keeping DBP/iodine/tint in spec across 200/210/215 for tire use? Are you hydrotreating/de-ashing and interlocking feed quality to reactor temp/quench to keep fouling down and SOx/VOC under control?
